So today was one of those days when I had plenty of excuses not to work-out today. Lots to do, kind of tired, maybe I need another day of rest.. You know the story. Then I saw something that changed my mind. A guy flew past me on a skateboard. Wow, I thought.. Ok now I have no excuse, I need to get my workout in. After all, you know as well as I do that one day of excuses leads to a second day of excuses and next thing you know, 5 years of "I'll get back on track tomorrow" goes by.
It doesn't matter that your kids kept you up late or got you up early. It doesn't matter that you missed yesterday's workout too. Mother nature doesn't care what excuses you want to use. She will still make you sick, fat, tired and all of the other bad things that happen when you don't exercise.
I was forgetting all of this when I felt lazy this morning. I had all the excuses lined up. And you know what? I was buying them. Sometimes it seems like all the stars have to be aligned just perfectly to work out. You need just the perfect amount of time, (like that ever happens), you need tons of extra energy (like that ever happens either), etc.. But the reality is you just have to do it, no matter what the conditions are. Ask the skateboarder.
Now what was it about this skateboarding man that inspired me? Well, he wasn't exactly your typical skateboarder.
He had no legs.
What's your excuse?
